MP Georgina Beyer found herself being abused by the children of Destiny at yesterday's hate march, egged on by their parents. She screamed at the protesters that it was disgraceful to use the cloak of Christianity when teaching children prejudice and discrimination, and received taunts of "queer", "George" and was told she was not normal. Beyer said the scene reminded her of a Nuremberg rally. Hundreds of young children joined the anti-Civil Union Bill march, chanting a range of anti-gay slogans through the "Enough is Enough" campaign organised by the Destiny Church. Some were heard yelling "you're filthy" to pro-civil union demonstrators.
